Arnette was released by the Texans on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
The cornerback signed with Houston in June and picked off a pass in the preseason, but it wasn't enough to help him stick on the Texans' 53-man roster. Arnette was a first-round pick of the Raiders in 2020, but he has not appeared in an NFL regular-season game since 2021. He has 29 career tackles (23 solo) and three pass breakups.

Damon Arnette: Gets three-game suspension
Rotowire
The NFL handed Arnette a three-game suspension Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports
Arnette's suspension is presumably the result of a violation of the NFL's personal conduct policy, stemming from his indictment this past May for assault with a deadly weapon and other firearms-related charges. A 2020 first-round pick, Arnette appeared in 13 games for Las Vegas over two seasons before being released in November 2021. He's since had stints with the Dolphins and Chiefs but hasn't appeared in an NFL game since being cut loose by Las Vegas.
